A general view at the opening of the new miniature model Knuffingen Aiport at Miniatur Wunderland on the airport's opening day in Hamburg, Germany. Miniatur Wunderland is the world's largest model railroad landscape, and the model airport, also the world's largest, goes into operation following 6 years of development and construction and an investment of EUR 3.5 million. The airport is a reproduction of Hamburg's international airport and includes 40 aircraft that take off and land and 90 vehicles that autonomously move around the runways.

I can't believe some of the idiotic comments on here about the cost of this attraction. When I see articles about Disneyworld's latest multi-million dollar ride or experience, I don't see people asking why they didn't spend the money on schoolbooks.

I say bless the Germans for having the passion to create such an amazing work of art. Some people actually get enjoyment from seeing the ingenuity and craftsmanship of their fellow citizens. I'd rather spend thousands of my dollars to travel to Europe to see this and spend 1 day there than spend 5 days hanging out with a guy walking around dressed in a giant plastic mouse head.
